Historically, Florentino Perez and Joan Laporta have been on opposite sides as Real Madrid and Barcelona have battled for domination of La Liga - and often for the Champions League trophy, too.
But recent events have driven them and their clubs together, which could have repercussions for the future of Spanish football, and the future of the Super League.
How? Dermot Corrigan explains, Craig Silcock illustrates.

Tebas himself is a big reason why the Spanish giants are still so strongly in favour of the Super League. His suddenly changing rules are hurting all the La Liga clubs financially. Here's a hilarious fact: In January f'ing BOURNEMOUTH was allowed to spend more money than the...here's the hilarious part... ENTIRETY OF LA LIGA. Football as a whole can't prosper like this.

Not only that. Betis, Sevilla, Valencia are struggling to sign players or register them. LaLiga has highest number of cases of late registration, inflated Salary wage bill because of the laws in Spain. Tebas in October-November specifically changed laws to prevent Gavi's registration. He also did the same in around 2004 when Barcelona tried to promote Messi to the first team. Of all the clubs, he hates Barcelona and in an attempt to trouble them, he ultimately ruining the league.

@curtischarles5299 Жыл бұрын

Tebas is a fool. He is the reason for the decline in teams . His so called financial fairplay has crippled la liga teams and now weaken them. Sevilla had to sell their stars . A team who was just in the champions league is now in relegation zone .simply because the salary cap is to low and they cant keep their stars. It's the same for barcelona he wants us to sell our high earning players to stay with the salary cap. What is that doing for la liga teams? Making them sell their star players and cannot bring in any because they won't want to accept small salaries . So there is no balance. So now small epl teams will be able to give better salaries to these players .

Although it's a much lower level of football the same could be said about Celtic and Rangers. The passion behind El Clásico/Old Firm is ferocious. Catalan against Castilian, Gael against Briton. There are many more footballing rivalries but none stand out so viscerally tribal in nature. The spectacle is tense even for a neutral observer and yet, beyond money, neither could exist without the other.

This isn’t something like the Old Firm. Lol

One could say it dates back to the Spanish Civil War itself with central authority challenging the right of minorities and at that time an actual armed conflict between not only the Falangists and Republicans but also the Catalan communists. The first thing Franco did was illegalize the Catalan language, illegalizing Catalan names and burning all their literature and even razing headstones of famous Catalan individuals.

@@gontrandjojo9747 Are you Spanish by chance? Because this sounds like either an revisionist Spaniard or an ignorant foreigners answer. The word traditional in itself is relative but the way you use it is very broad or shall i say "relative". Very shortly or simply put, republicans all over Spain after the Civil War supported Barcelona. Opponents of said republicans, the conservatives and falangists etc. supported Real Madrid. It was a harmless way to rebel against supposed oppression. It wasn't so much the Catalans themselves but the non-conformists in the rest of Spain who created this rivalry. 2nd biggest city of Spain, in a traditionally hostile to the government region in an apparently dictatorial country. It was by all means a natural development, but a very real one. Denying it is not only folly, but idiocy. And Basques weren't even remotely as opposed to Franco as Catalans either were or was portrayed as by the republican/communist remnants.

It's even worse in Scotland. Celtic and Rangers have won every Premiership title since the 1985/86 season. But in LaLiga Barca and Real have not won every league title between them for that same period. Althletico Madrid (3), Valencia (2) and Deportivo La Caruna (1) have won the league. *Note arbitray year selected to start from, as in the early 80s Scotland had Dundee United and Aberdeen win league titles and Spain had Althletico Bilbao win league titles. But I think that 37 consecutive seasons is a long time to dominate a competition between two clubs and it will be 38 this season as Celtic and Rangers are comfortably ahead of the next place team.

@michaelreddington658 Жыл бұрын

An absolutely insane comment at the end there…’Both committed to making sure the rest of Scottish Football never has a chance to become competitive?’ Celtic and Rangers have been the dominant clubs in Scotland for years primarily down to one major reason, size of fanbases. There are some great clubs with brilliant history in Scotland but they’ve never been able to capitalise on the success they’ve had down the years primarily because they don’t have the size of fanbases Celtic and Rangers do. You’re also dreaming if you think Douglas Park & Dermot Desmond are sitting around with a dram plotting the down fall of the other clubs 😂

I have always thought that the idea of a Super League is less black and white than the English media make it out to be. On the one hand it supports the wealthy clubs that dominate the game, but it also makes the top flight scene of clubs less Premier League focused, as those are the teams people invest in due to the marketability. I am still anti-super League but I get Barça and Madrid’s perspectives.

As a Madrid fan I find it quite funny that in Perez's attempt to keep all the power and riches to Madrid and Barcelona he's hurt La Liga and this Madrid in the crossfire, the league had a golden opportunity to capitalise and become a massive global brand like the premier league when Messi and Ronaldo were both playing for Madrid and Barcelona and was most likely the most "famous" time in la liga's recent history but instead of distributing wealth and strengthening the overall league making a more competitive environment like the PL he tried to hold onto it all himself which as we now see resulted in La Liga's dry period with majority of the worlds attention turning to the English league which in itself IS is a super league. Pere'z attempts to create a super league to generate more money could have been succeeded "although most likely with not as much as an actual super league would generate" if he just allowed the league and competition to grow but instead he forcefully held it back and thus Madrid along with it.

Moreover, it is obvious that the prem gains more revenue with their TV rights because more people watch the PL due to it's major intensity and game dynamics in contrast to the tactical, well defended and slower games of La Liga which may be more unappealing to the regular sports fan, thus not attracting as much viewers which results in less money from TV rights. With this argument you could then argue that it is fair for the prem to have this much money in comparison to the spanish league, but the spanish league has a much bigger problem with its President who doesn't know how to handle the league he presides.

Tebas is forcing Superleague to happen. & Barca & Real has enmity in field but outside that overall both clubs have been friendly to each other. Sports cant sustain & grow with monopoly. You need exciting matches, rivals to make more money. Both barca & Madrid is trying to replace Tebas in upcoming Laliga election probably cuz Tebas is Putting sanctions on laliga teams every week ( specially barca). PL is certainty the biggest League in World but Mardrid & Barca is the top most elite clubs & biggest in World ( united if you count top 3) -. Don't argue stupidly here. Its according to Forbes. Outside UK everywhere you go, even go time China & Russia people will say Barcelona / Real Madrid? This also says that These two teams have also discriminated against other teams in laliga. As a result Its not competitive as PL. So obviously they need Superleague to compete & maintain growth. No one is villains here. UK people is protesting cuz they dont want to lose dominance. But everything changes. US is also.not going to be no.1 for long. & i think Super League is inevitable. The simple difference is that PL teams accept to be owned by Saudi / Qatari Owners & make millions, buy all players but Public clubs like Barca / Madrid need Superleague cuz they are not sold to Oil billionaires.

First of all I agree with u almost in everything except when u said u epl is afraid to loose the dominance when they never dominated Europe. What they r afraid of is their competitive ability to come close to clubs like juve,napoli, Real Madrid, Barca,Ajax bc all they have now is the dominance of spending money.which by the way they don’t make. Am also glad that we will never sell our club for anything.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are selfish, they do not want the revenues to be divided equally among all the clubs in laliga, and this makes the other clubs unable to compete with the 2 giants or with other clubs outside Spain say, the premier league. The Spanish league becomes unattractive, and end up making less money. There is no way the 2 clubs will survive if this trend continues because depending on the UCL is just not enough. They will be unable to attract big name players or keep their young and exciting talents, who will prefer to move to other leagues.

Both Madrid and Barca already has the largest fanbase in the world, been the most successful for decades and had the most Balon D Or winners.

Also, LA Liga (the organization) has done a terrible job promoting the brand to the rest of the world. They had Messi and Ronaldo in their prime and still couldn't promote the product effectively. PL is light years ahead of La Liga as a brand. Real and Barca have valid reasons to not trust La Liga. They are the ones who promote their own brands while La Liga does nothing so as a result, Ppl tune in to watch Real and Barca not any other team thanks to poor promotion by La Liga.

Because it would be more than a farmers league than it already is if there wasn’t a duopoly. Just look at France, Germany and Italy how traditionally only one team wins. Juventus won 9 years in a row, Bayern Munich 10 in a row and in France 8 of the last 10 years it was PSG. The quality of a league is in tight championship races as well as the points spread from top to bottom. Football needs a salary cap, like American sports.

@@Mikel57129 What you don't understand like most EPL fans is very fact that wealth is concentrated to Madrid and Barca because La liga leadership does a very poor job in promoting their league. They don't have the same leverage as EPL with lucrative TV deals extending over 10 billion with Sky which even is an English media outlet or any middlemen for that matter given the fact that EPL is already it's own super league, never mid the fact that major clubs in Spain are members owned which doesn't attract corrupt billionaires. If that was the case, both Madrid and Barca wouldn't have a hard time to distribute their wealth equally, but at this point it's relatively unfair to both of these clubs given the fact that they are the clubs who overwhelmingly brings the most audiences to the table, in fact both Real Madrid and Barca has the largest fanbase in the world, go figure.
